(AP) - Bob Denver, star of the 1960s television show ``Gilligan's
Island,'' is recuperating from quadruple heart bypass surgery, his
agent said Wednesday.

Denver, 70, had the surgery recently after a checkup revealed
problems, said his Los Angeles-based agent, Mike Eisenstadt. He is
recuperating at his West Virginia home.

Denver portrayed the title character in the sitcom about a group of
castaways stranded on a desert isle.
